Car was doin' great prior. Was playing tag with M3's and a 350z in a couple of sessions.

Then in the 4th I seem to be having trouble getting into 4th gear smoothly....could be bad news already. 18k+a few track days and now 255whp. I think I was trying to catch 4xrex when we had the Red flag come out and the car started smoking.

What is 4xrex's name?

No worries Lance just glad it was nothing too major, never know what it might be when the oil spewing from under your car!

It was great chatting to all the Scooby owners out there, see you all again soon

Mike

 

4xrex = josh

 

ya that was fun. we were passing M3's left and right.

 

Yeah that was sweet! Gotta get some r-compounds! I think I'm at the level where I could handle it now.

I'll have some video up later this week.

Lowball

P.S. good talking with you Josh

 

you got video of me? sweet!!

 

Lowball Lance, you are a cool guy yourself and it shows.
You get what you give, that's why people are willing to help you out.

Thanks for being friendly to a rallycross newbie!

 

Hey Mike, thats really nice of you! Whadda guy!

Oh yea, BTW, Mike, I saw you driving up through SAC on friday....I passed you on the freeway (80)....you were driving a white Expedition, towing a black wagon.....and being followed by a blue sedan...I was in my truck on my way up to Tahoe to do some campin' and 'wheelin', this thread just reminded me of that. Anywho....glad everything went smoothly for you lowball....Did you get your car fixed?

-Ted

 

That would be Lowball's black wagon with BobbyD following behind.

 

Thanks Ted.

I ordered the part and it will be here this week. So the install should take place sometime this weekend or next week.

Thanks Mudpie. You da man!

 

Yeah Josh I got like a good 15min of Session4 when you were staying pretty far ahead of me...what you got in that thing???!!! I know you were rockin' the r-compounds but you were still staying out ahead of me for the most part.

I can send you a disk if you PM me you address or I can compress it down and try and post a link but then you loose some of the quality.

 

When you get a chance, can you burn me a copy of the footage when you were following my slow **** STi (actually, just my slow **** )? I'm still trying to diagnose the loose rear end issue.

 

that is exactly what I was thinking. It's a road karma kind of thing...or car karma.

I got stuck in a snow bank a couple years ago and this huge suburban pulls up and spend a good 15/20 minutes pulling me out. I tried to pay them and both the dude and his wife on seperate occassions...neither around each other said this....no no. It's a road karma thing for us. You get what you give. Hopefully when we're in a jam someone will help us.

It's so freaking true. I am always stopping to help people on the road. Couple of accidents, break downs, etc.

Lance is a freaking awesome guy. Been nothing but helpful to me with my wagon question and what not. What goes around comes around.

 

This would be me following a 350z after he passed me. He got tired of me being on his *** and then let me by after turn 8. Then in turn 4 with a totally open road I turn in way to early and the rear gets loose.
